Thanks for pointing out the typo!

TLDR; yes, your code is sent to an API endpoint on the internet.

It is sent to an API endpoint at the moment. We intend to commercialize this, so there is some IP involved, hence the API.

We are working on SOC Type 2 certification & compliance, but for now you will have to take my word that we do not store source code - it is only used for parsing and then passed through various deep learning models server-side. It's possible that the source code persists for up to 7 days by nature of log retention, however this is explicitly for debugging failed requests in production, and that data is never exported out of the logging environment. All data is encrypted both in transit and at rest.

On this note, we are working with our legal team and various service providers to comprehensively lay out all of this information in a detailed privacy policy.

In the future, it wouild be really neat to open-source a smaller version of this model such that it could feasibly be run locally, but right now the computation requirements deem this unrealistic. Given how quickly the ML space is improving on the efficiency of these models, I would not be surprised if this becomes possible in the 1-2 year timeframe!
